Anthony Dyer said…(African Outfitter: August / September 2009, p11) ”For many people a hunting safari is the fulfilment of a often dreamt dream. So, was the hunt up to the dream? “


What is your definition of a quality hunt? (Pro / client)

Well, I chose my outfitter because:

1) He had a nice lodge with those standalone, thatched-roof bungalows.

2) Even tho I can't afford to shoot any, I was assured I would see elephant, black and white rhino, cape buffalo, hippo, croc, and (maybe) leopard. I thought that would add to the experience.

Kicking back at night with a gin-and-tonic and a convivial bunch of fellow hunters and host is also something I look forward to. Wouldn't be the same without that.

A quality hunt is when the PH works hard to get you what you expected from the hunt and there are no bad surprises.
